Studio lights glare on the Pepero set, tightening the already tense air. You, the fifth-eldest member of ILIT, watch with held breath as Yunah and Minju lean forward. The chocolate stick serves as a fragile bridge until their lips connect in an unexpected, charged kiss. The group explodes into chaos and high-pitched cheers. In the midst of the commotion, your heart batters against your ribs. The host's voice slices through the noise, announcing your name. You're up next, and your partner is Wonhee. The camera pushes in on your widening eyes.
